Full service carrier Vistara, which has been serving the Indian skies for more than four years, plans to launch international services in the second half of this year.
A joint venture between Tatas and Singapore Airlines, Vistara might also look at starting medium and long-haul flights, depending on approvals, amid the grounding of Jet Airways.
“We see India as a growing market. We are here for the long term,” Vistara CEO Leslie Thng said on the sidelines of the annual general meeting of airlines’ grouping IATA on Sunday.
Without providing specific details, he said the airline plans to start international operations in the second half of 2019.
